05/04/2016

Designer Spotlight: Nicole Azevedo
Design Aesthetic: My Collection is inspired by old photos of my great aunt, Thais Alalia Dickerson. She was a famous actress in the 1930's known as Gloria Dickson. It is a Spring 2017 Women's contemporary collection mixing vintage and modern details.
Dream: My dream goal is to have my own fashion brand and show at New York Fashion Week. I want to change the way people view fashion and see it as something positive to empower others.
Inspiration: My all time favorite designer is Ellie Saab. His couture gowns are absolutely amazing and never cease to inspire me.

Designer Spotlight: Teresa Nguyen
Design Aesthetic: Cars specifically the Nissan Datsun Z 240 and 280. These creations are all accompanied with a connection to my life with my elder brothers. Dream: In fashion is to incorporate new technology into garments like biodegradable clothing or hospital attire that can measure heart rate. I want to show the world that fashion isn't all about glamour. It's about making a difference.
Inspiration: I am inspired by all designers, but for this collection Paco Rabanne is my main inspiration.

Designer Spotlight: Paige Rolin
Design Aesthetic: My design theme is all about nature. The majority of my inspiration comes from landscapes, flowers, water and animals.
Dream: I want to go into the film and television industry. Either becoming a costume designer or set costumer.
Inspiration: One of my favorite designers right now is Christian Siriano. We have a very similiar style and aesthetic. Zuhair Muraad is also a designer that I love right now.

Model Coaching in progress!! Work it boys!!

Designer Spotlight: Rachel Sherman
Design Aesthetic: So, I decided on a funky, 1970s theme revolved around my child-like obsession with bubbles. There will be lots of color, which is a little difficult for me because I am so drawn to black
Dream: Ultimately, I want to be the head designer of my own lingerie and swimwear brand. But, before I reach that goal, I want to learn as much as I can about the fashion industry by working in different parts of this field, rather than just reading it in a textbook.
Inspiration: I am mostly inspired by smaller lingerie and swimwear businesses I find on Instagram. I would have to say, my favorite lingerie designer is Creepyyeha () and my favorite swimwear designer is Kae West ()

Design Aesthetic: Combination of conservativeness and cutting edge design. Dream: While many of designers introduce designs with most modern design with very bright color, my design has something about simplicity and conservativeness.

Design Aesthetic: I like to use high contrast and geometric shape with metallic accents and pop of bold color.
